The working principle is as follows: according to the invention, through a bias structure formed by the resistor 16, the diode 15 and the capacitor structure, when a reverse bias voltage is applied to a device, a high potential is generated on the stop ring metal 21, after voltage is divided by the resistor 16 and the diode 15, a parallel plate capacitor formed by the capacitor field plate metal 20 and the second source electrode metal 24 is charged, when the reverse bias voltage is reduced, the voltage on the capacitor field plate metal 20 can be kept stable and unchanged due to the reverse clamping action of the diode 15, and therefore, a stable voltage is provided for the polysilicon field plate in the trench 3 of the terminal region. Since the potential at the position of the stop ring metal 21 is large, the voltage applied to the termination region trench 3 is reduced by the resistor 16. The resistance of the resistor 16 can be adjusted linearly by the implantation dose, and different voltage division functions can be realized, so that the resistor is applied to devices with different voltage withstanding levels.

The capacitance of the capacitor can be adjusted according to the magnitude of the applied voltage to adjust the thickness of the first dielectric layer 17.
Referring to fig. 16, due to the presence of the forward bias voltage in the trench of the termination region, the electric field distribution of the termination region can be adjusted, so that the depletion line extends laterally, the voltage endurance of the device is improved, and meanwhile, the avalanche breakdown point moves from the termination to the active region, and the high-temperature stability is better. Referring to fig. 17, compared with the conventional SGT termination structure, the present invention can significantly improve the electric field distribution, and the trench of the termination region bears more voltage, thereby increasing the voltage withstanding level of the device; meanwhile, the electric field intensity near the periphery of the terminal region is higher in the invention as seen by the electric field distribution (parallel to the X axis) perpendicular to the bottom of the trench. Referring to fig. 18, the invention reduces the density of oxide layer interface hole defects during avalanche breakdown by increasing bias voltage in the trench of the termination region, thereby effectively improving BV walk-in and walk-out problems, thereby improving BV stability and increasing device reliability; from the simulation pull bias result, the bias voltage in the trench is between 6V and 17V, and the BVDSS of the device is stable.
